Waters (Bruce Willis), Danny "Doc" Kelley (Paul Francis), Jason "Flea" Mabry (Chad Smith), Kelly Lake (Johnny Messner), and Ellis "Zee" Pettigrew (Eamonn Walker) as their primary weapons. "Doc" and "Zee" both have an M203 Grenade Launcher mounted on their weapons while "Flea" has a 6x48 Sightron S33 scope on the carry handle and a silencer.

M60E4 Machine Gun

The M60E4 machine gun appears in the film being used by James "Red" Atkins (Cole Hauser) as his primary weapon, fitted with a duckbill-style muzzle brake used on the Navy version, the Mk43. Members of the rescue team that meets Winters' group and the refugees at the border can also be seen with M60E4's.

M249 SAW Paratrooper

A paratrooper version of the M249 SAW appears in the film used by Michael "Slo" Slowenski (Nick Chinlund) as his primary weapon, with a cloth ammo pouch. After he's killed in a shootout with the militia fighters, Demetrius "Silk" Owens (Charles Ingram) takes it and uses it for the remainder of the film.

M-14 Sniper rifle

Used by Demetrius "Silk" Owens (Charles Ingram) as his primary weapon. US Navy uses standard M14 rifles. The M21 is used by the US Army. The USMC uses the M14 DMR, Designated Marksman Rifle. All are updated versions of the M14

Remington 870 Shotgun

Lake also uses a Remington 870 shotgun with an extended tube and a sidesaddle for extra shells on the left side of the reciever. The shotgun is sometimes preferred for close quarters and in the jungle, often used by the pointman in the team. After Lake takes an unfatal shot to the right shoulder, "Flea" takes his Remington 870, because Lake can only use one arm. Flea then fires all seven shots and most likey drops the shotgun, due to its long reload time. Flea then uses his M4 until he is shot.
